Rushcliffe Borough Council has passed plans to build 24 more properties at the Lacefields development in Ruddington
More homes will be built in a new estate in a Nottinghamshire village. Rushcliffe Borough Council has approved plans to increase the size of the 185-home Lacefields development in Ruddington, off the A60 Loughborough Road.
Locals welcomed the new homes, expressing a hope the future residents would fit into their friendly community. Bhavna Passon, 34, who moved to Ruddington from London, said: “As long as it stays as it is, the types of families and people moving in. There’s a few young couples, young families and young professionals."I don’t mind as long as it’s the same community we've got here. I think it will be nice. It’s very peaceful.
The site is currently a partially overgrown field, dominated by trees and an overgrown hedgerow along the western edge. According to the developer, the layout would create areas of public open space. The new homes will be surrounded to the north, south and east by the rest of the housing estate and to the western boundary by a care home. In a planning document, Pegasus Group, on behalf of William Davis, said: "The proposals respect the character of Ruddington and move the area towards a sustainable future through an increase in housing choice.
